In “telephone conversation,” what does the expression “pressurized good breeding” suggest about the landlady’s attitude?

The correct answer is D.

In “Telephone Conversation,”  Wole Soyinka uses the expression  “pressurized good breeding” to suggest that the landlady is trying to hide her racial prejudice.
